Man Boobs, officially called gynecomastia, is an embarrassing condition for most men. Gynecomastia is when the breast tissues in men swell and get, well, let’s say a “full” look. This can affect one or both breasts for various reasons, such as, for example, irregular hormone levels.
If you have developed man boobs and you also find that your newfound breasts are also painful, and have discharges from nipples, you should see a doctor right away as this might be a more serious condition.
Most men find this condition extremely embarrassing and difficult to cope with. In fact, a great number of men even undergo breast reduction surgery in their effort to avoid this feminine look.
You don’t have to go to that extreme, however. There are many natural remedies that can help to treat this problem. We are also going to give you two important suggestions for things you should avoid at all costs to stop developing this problem in the first place.
1. Turmeric
One of the famous natural remedies for man boobs is turmeric. This spice naturally increases the levels of testosterone in men. When testosterone levels are high, male breast size naturally reduces. An added bonus is that turmeric helps to burn fat and encourages a healthy liver.
One of the ways to use it is by simply adding one tablespoon of turmeric to one cup of water or milk and allowing the mixture to simmer for a quarter of an hour. Then drink this mixture two or three times each day, make sure you take it before going to bed. Repeating this daily, you should begin to see results in two or three weeks.
Always get advice from your doctor before taking any herbal supplements or treatments. Turmeric is tolerated well by most people but it can worsen gallbladder problems and make GERD worse for some people.
